"Mobile Learning: Transforming the Delivery of Education and Training", edited by Mohamed Ally, has just been published by Athabasca University as an e-book under the Creative Commons license.
I regard myself as a fairly early adopter of technology, but for a variety of reasons I have never moved to adopting mobile technology in education and training. It's hard to believe that the first book on mobile learning was actually published four years ago and of course there were journal articles and conference presentations before then. Since then, many applications have been created for mobile devices, including ones for education and training.
In this book, Mohamed Ally has collected thirteen chapters on current research initiatives and applications of mobile technology in learning.
